Re: [Blind-Computing] can't go to my grocery store site using web IE

2010-11-13 Thread Jackie McBride
RoseMarie, if it is that webIE has worked before on the Safeway site (which would surprise me), then I suspect malware. I'd do an antivirus antispyware scan try again. I'd also try using a traditional browser such as IE or Firefox. If you're still being redirected, then go to www.trendmicro.com

Hi, Jackie, I'm thinking of getting rid of web IE. I had only downloaded it because I know it's supposed to work with any screen reader you have but it's not working out for me. I did like the calendar feature but I can always write my appointments down anyway. Rosemarie - Original

You can still use the calendar program even if you don't use WebbIE. It's a stand-alone application, so if you switch to IE or Firefox as your browser, you can still use it as long as you don't uninstall the entire WebbIE package. Gerald - Original Message - From: ROSEMARIE

The safeway.com site isn't all that friendly w/ff, RoseMarie. I suggest u either use the accessability site or IE to use the safeway site. The issue is that ff doesn't recognize the buttons to add subtract quantities as being clickable. Your alternative is simply to use the edit field provided
